Artrell Hawkins was joined today by Cincinnati Bengal Leon Hall and Pat Sims, former Bengal Charles Fisher, Rotina McCann from Fox19 and some University of Cincinnati Bearcats along with Santa to celebrate the holidays with the kids at St Al’s.
A huge thanks to St. Aloysius orphanage for letting us share in the holiday spirit.
The Second Annual Ndukwe Foundation Fundraiser Reception hosted by Chinedum Ndukwe on Wednesday, October 11, 2010 at the Taft Center in Downtown Cincinnati.
Artrell Hawkins (AH): Every athlete has that “ah-ha” moment, when they realize their talents are above average. Talk about that moment for you.
Adam “Pacman” Jones (Pacman): Probably around 9 years old. I had something like 34 touchdowns in 10 games as a running back. My team won the national championship that year…and that’s when i knew if I worked hard, I could be pretty special.

With the first pre-season contest out of the way, the Bengals go back to work today in Georgetown….and WORK…is what they must do.
Don’t talk about it, be about it! Expectations for this season are as high as they’ve ever been in Cincinnati. That’s a good thing. However, the pressure that these lofty expectations are real and potentially hazordous to any team ill-equipped to handle them. Its not unusual for fans and media …
A couple quick thoughts about last nights Bengals vs Cowboys game…
First thing first–penalties are still a major problem. Last night, the Bengals had 12 penalties for 90 yards. That’s not winning football. It shows a lack of discipline and concentration, especially when they’re pre-snap penalties like off-sides and illegal-motion. Penalties kill momentum and lose games.
On the D’s first series, an off-sides penalty on Jonathan Fananae negated a fumble caused by SS …
Georgetown, KY – Practice #4 was full of hitting for the Bengals today! If you watched HBO’s ”Hard Knocks” last year, then you probably remember one of my favorite segments – oklahoma drills. That’s what went down today. Here are my best and worst:
***BEST MATCH-UP***: Ray Maualuga vs Fui Vakapuna–From where I was standing, it looked as though this was a split decesion. The first round I gave to Malaluga, who was more aggressive and in the end made the tackle on the …
That’s right! I hit 75 S bright and early this morning to be in attendance of the Bengals 4th training camp practice in Georgetown, KY–and it didn’t disappoint! Stay tuned–right here at www.artrellhawkins.com–as I am wrapping up some interviews and content to bring you shortly. There were some exciting competitive matchups today during Oklahomas–I’ll be telling you about that, and much more! Trust me, you’ll wanna know!
With the T.O. hoopla finally behind us (thank goodness!!), I’ve decided to blog about the Bengals most important Player-#9.
Despite all the fan-fare and media attention that the signing of T.O. has garnered the last couple days, ultimately Carson Palmer is the the guy that really counts. If he dosen’t play well, none of this other crap matters. So the question that needs answered isn’t “Can Carson handle the “Tocho” (T.O.+Ocho) tandem?”, …
Pictured above: THE “TOCHO” (T.O. + OCHO) meaning “mountain American lion”, according to mybaby.net

HATE IT OR LOVE IT, THE T.O. SHOW IS COMING TO CINCINNATI.
The Bengals and the oft-controversial WR came to terms on a one-year deal less than 24-hours before the team is scheduled to arrive at training camp in Georgetown, KY. The move comes as a suprise to many given Owens’ reputation as a locker room cancer and …
